I'm a B.ED student at LU and for one of my classes, I'm putting together a children's history book focusing on the Ojibway. I'm having trouble finding information about Mount. McKay. I know it's important to the Ojibway people and that it's the site of pow wows, but what significance did it hold in the past? Can any one help me out?

Please either comment here or email me: emallia_janor@hotmail.com if you have anything that might help.Thanks a lot!

I just got word today that I was accepted to Lakehead for my bachelor's of ed. I am now trying to do some reasearch on moving up there and where I will live and what I will need, and how expensive coming back down here to Windsor (and vice-versa) it will be for my boyfriend & I.

So - where do I look for housing near the university? Is there a housing directory online somewhere that I can look at (just to get prices for now)? Do a lot of places near the U rent for 8 months? How is the Residence at Lakehead? Would it be worth it to look into the townhouse or apartment residences (I don't want a meal plan, as I would rather make all my own food) for 650 a month? Looking on the university off-campus housing directory, there doesn't seem to be much offered in ways of students moving in from out of town who don't have a group. Are there places that offer 8 months leases?

What are the living expenses like? More expensive than other parts of the country for food? less? gas?

Also, what would I need for winter weather up there in terms of clothing and such? In Windsor our winters are relatively mild, and I usually just wear a hoodie over a tee under my winter coat.

Also, does Lakehead offer some sort of Work Study program for students where they can work on campus? I plan on getting OSAP, and most of my school/living will be paid for that way, but I know that I will need another job for extra money, like travel and car expenses.

I have a Motorola V186M (Much Music Edition) cell phone that I want to get rid of. I got a new phone like a year ago when I went onto a monthly plan and this one has just been sitting here, taking up space. I only used it for a couple months, so it's in awesome condition. Here is the info..

Activated, ready to use with Rogers monthly or Pay as you Go plans (Tbaytel may let you use it too? Not sure)

I'm looking to trade a 4 gig IPOD nano with a two year extended warrenty from futureshop (good if the batteries go on it which they are prone to do every year or so). Normal wear and tare but nothing to extreme for a PDA. It must have some form of MP3 playability on it as well as color screen and decently powered. If interested leave me a message with the make of your PDA so I can look it up as well as some means of getting a hold of you. The comments will be screened so don't worry about infomration getting out.

is there anybody out there who could help me dread my hair or perhaps knows someone who can? any help would be greatly appreciated. i am new to thunder bay so i think this would be a great opportunity to meet some new people.

just so you guys know, i didn't mean my comments on the last entry in this community to come off as being aggressive or confrontational, and i appreciate all of your feedback in regards to this issue, i think that you guys managed to make me rethink my position on the issue, and i will present them at the next board meeting.

oh yeah, i'm on the lusu board of governors.

so, if you guys ever have any concerns or ideas, don't hesitate to email me or just leave a comment on my livejournal, i believe my contact information is on my user profile.
